really, all types of friction can be thought of as self adjusting forces, since they arise only because of some initial force. you have a good question, we should start calling them static self adjusting force, kinetic self adjusting force, and rolling self adjusting force. also the frictional force is dependant on the weight of the object and the surface, not the speed, so using the word kinetic can be misleading.

What is coeffitient of stactic n kinetic friction?
The coefficient of static or kinetic friction depends on the surfaces that are causing friction. The formula for it is: force of friction over normal force.
Which type of kinetic fiction is usually greater sliding kinetic friction or rolling kinetic friction?
Sliding Kinetic Friction is usually greater than Rolling Kinetic Friction. Sliding Kinetic Friction is caused by two objects being dragged together, providing more opportunity for the objects' microscopic hills and valleys to catch.
What type of friction is the frictional force needed to start on object at rest into motion?
Static
How the direction of the force of kinetic friction is related to the direction of an object's motion?
Friction force works against the motion of the object. In other words friction force has the opponent direction of the velocity of the object.
How does the direction of the force of kinetic friction is related to the direction of of an objects motion?
Friction always acts opposite to the direction of motion.
Which is the larger the kinetic friction force or the statical friction force?
Statical friction
Which is the self adjusting force?
Except static friction all other types of friction are not self adjusting.
What is coeffitient of stactic n kinetic friction?
The coefficient of static or kinetic friction depends on the surfaces that are causing friction. The formula for it is: force of friction over normal force.
Diference between static and kinetic friction?
the static friction is the force of friction that keep an object at rest from movie and kinetic friction is the force of friction that tries to start a moving object
What is the force that keeps you from sliding on an icy sidewalk kinetic friction static friction?
coefficient kinetic
What is the name of the force that slows a boat down?
Generally, friction will slow kinetic motion in water and air alike.Gravity will always tend to pull things down, thus slowing upward motion.Generally, friction will slow kinetic motion in water and air alike.fluid friction
What is the kinetic?
The theory that states that all atoms are constantly moving
What is the forces acting on a car?
kinetic energy from the engine whereas opposite force act on it called friction..
When solid surfaces slide over each other the kind of friction that occurs is called sliding friction.?
true! When solid surfaces slide over each other, the kind of friction that occurs is called sliding friction.
Which type of kinetic fiction is usually greater sliding kinetic friction or rolling kinetic friction?
Sliding Kinetic Friction is usually greater than Rolling Kinetic Friction. Sliding Kinetic Friction is caused by two objects being dragged together, providing more opportunity for the objects' microscopic hills and valleys to catch.
What force holds you to a sled when it starts moving?
kinetic force
How do static friction and kinetic differ from each other?
Static friction is a force that must be overcome to start motion. Kinetic friction is the force that must be overcomne during motion or the motion stops.
